03x08 - Tili Tili Bom

[bunniefuu]

Previously on "Bitten"...

It's amazing.

Look, we can fix it up in no time, just the way you like.

I'm going to go after Roman.

No, you can't go alone!

No, you have to stay there and oversee things, Elena.

I'm looking to rent a house.

I need something large with a lot of land.

We only had one like that, but it was just rented out for the next few months.

Visiting businessmen. Russian, I think.

[Groaning]

You think I'm losing control.

You think it is Roman that needs to die.

I cannot k*ll him.

But I will not stand in your way.

Out there, I'll be waiting for you and I won't be playing games.

Oh, that's too bad, for some of us, games are fun.

Jorge! No, no, no!

I stepped away for two minutes.

I don't know how to stop him.

Elena: We can stay.

We can help.

You don't have to do this by yourself.

Jeremy: I know the two of you well enough to understand why you came when I said not to.

I've made my decision.

The answer is no.

Clay: Jeremy, we understand the risks. But surely...

If you're arguing with me, Clayton, you don't understand all the risks.

The only way to ensure that there's no blowback is for me to k*ll Roman alone.

And that's why you two will take care of Roman's hitman.

With pleasure.

And with Roman's death, you will end all the others.

When Roman dies, the blood feud dies with him.

And if you succeed before us, Konstantin will call off the Albino.

You think Konstantin can be trusted?

He stands to benefit from his father's death.

He's our best bet at getting you where you need to be.

You've the makings of a great leader, Elena.

In the days to come, you will guide our Pack well.

I'm only in charge until you return.

You're going to come back to us, Jeremy.

Sometimes a leader needs to make the tough decisions.

They need to show the way.

Have a character that inspires others.

Yes. That's exactly why...

And they need to know when to pass the mantle and step away.

Even if I make it back, it's your time to lead.

Clay.

Your allegiance, and your courage, and your unfailing loyalty to me has kept me alive.

You've given me strength.

Jeremy, I owe everything I am to you.

Now I need your support more than ever.

Of course.

Accept Elena as your new Alpha.

Support her as you would me.

Uphold her word, at all costs.

I do.

I will. With all my heart.

Jeremy, you can't just delegate Alpha.

It's never been done in the past, but things change.

And with you, they will change.

The Pack will support you.

I'm not ready.

Yes, you are.

Everything in your life has led you to this.

You were born to be a leader.

The next generation needs to stand on the shoulders of those who went before.

And you will see so much further and so much clearer than I ever did, Elena.

Man: State police!

Police, open up!

Officer. What can I do for you?

Evening, ma'am.

This is Rafalski. 10-23 up on Gander Road.

What's going on?

We received an automated alarm from this residence, the call went straight to 9-1-1.

Just wondering if you could tell me what you're doing here.

We must have tripped it by accident.

I didn't realize the real estate agent put one in.

You're the owners?

Sort of. Almost. Um...

My fiancé and I just bought it.

We didn't tell the agent we were coming up for a visit.

That's a sweet story, I'm inclined to believe you but the 9-1-1 call was logged.

I'm going to have to come in, make sure.

Of course.

[In low voice] Not a word. Not a sound.

[Distant footsteps]

I can see why you bought the place.

Must be gorgeous when the sun goes down.

It is.

The light just fills the place, it's perfect.

Oh... It smelled a little rank.

Dead mouse in the walls, I think.

Same thing happened to our place.

Awful smell.

Not too far from town?

Elena: No, um...

Actually, we like the idea of being alone.

Don't have to deal with the neighbours, and...

Tell my wife all the time, fences don't make for good neighbours; no neighbours makes for good neighbours.

Exactly.

So I'm wondering if you're more inclined to believe me now.

I mean, this whole thing was my idea.

The dinner. The visit.

If my fiancé knew you were here, might spoil the mood.

[Crunch]

What's he up to?

Uh, he said he was...

You know, I think I'll go introduce myself.

I'm sure he'll be here in a second.

I won't keep him long.

I told you not to move.

[Wheezing laugh]

Now he comes down hall.

You set the alarm.

You knew we'd trip it and the police would come.

What do you do now, Clay? Hm?

k*ll me? Explain a body. k*ll him?

Another innocent human dies by your hand.

Let me get him for you.

No trouble. We're right here.

Hey. Sorry. I, uh... I didn't realize we had company.

Is everything okay?

Yeah! We're good.

You're right.

The drywall's going to have to come off, there's too much water damage.

Old houses... Thought I'd have my contractor come by and take a look.
